Just a quick question to all who may be interested...
What sort of bhp figures would i be looking at if i took the Metric Mechanic 2100FI Rally engine and threw a DASC kit on it running 15psi? as well as other minor add-ons (headers, exhaust etc)...
any help would b great
Cheers,
Jester

You can try sending an email to them, but you may be better off building your own engine with an m47 crank, I couldn't imagine what the shipping cost would be for them to send an engine to Australia.

i'm not worried about the shipping. by the time i can afford the engine, i'll compensate for shipping aswell :)
plus its a whole lot easier to purchase an engine that i know is the exact displacement i want rather then try and fail by building it myself. there are too many things that could go wrong in a build. as rewarding as it would be to build the engine myself, i don't hav the experience just yet. maybe some day i will build an engine...maybe tear down an S14...try and go for that elusive S42 XD
